2237is an odd number,as it is not divisible by 2
The factors for 2237 are all the numbers between -2237 and 2237 , which divide 2237 without leaving any remainder. Since 2237 divided by -2237 is an integer, -2237 is a factor of 2237 .
Since 2237 divided by -2237 is a whole number, -2237 is a factor of 2237
Since 2237 divided by -1 is a whole number, -1 is a factor of 2237
Since 2237 divided by 1 is a whole number, 1 is a factor of 2237
Multiples of 2237 are all integers divisible by 2237 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 2237 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 2237. The smallest multiples of 2237 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 2237 since 0 × 2237 = 0
2237 : in fact, 2237 is a multiple of itself, since 2237 is divisible by 2237 (it was 2237 / 2237 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
4474: in fact, 4474 = 2237 × 2
6711: in fact, 6711 = 2237 × 3
8948: in fact, 8948 = 2237 × 4
11185: in fact, 11185 = 2237 × 5
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 2237, the answer is: yes, 2237 is a prime number because it only has two different divisors: 1 and itself (2237).
To know the primality of an integer, we can use several algorithms. The most naive is to try all divisors below the number you want to know if it is prime (in our case 2237). We can already eliminate even numbers bigger than 2 (then 4 , 6 , 8 ...). Besides, we can stop at the square root of the number in question (here 47.297 ). Historically, the Eratosthenes screen (which dates back to Antiquity) uses this technique relatively effectively.
More modern techniques include the Atkin screen, probabilistic tests, or the cyclotomic test.
